Gold, one of the most precious metals in the world. Most of us have seen it, and many of us have touched it. A lucky few of us wear it each day, whether it be in a necklace, a ring, or a set of stunning earrings. It has been said that gold is even the key to a true woman's heart. An interesting theory. But putting the wonderfulness of this metal aside, we know from simple economics that for any person who wants to buy and own gold, a seller must exist somewhere in the wide blue yonder to be able to complete the transaction. On that note, let me mention that there are some online services and websites available that can assist with the latter part of this equation.

No doubt if you were to sort through your drawers and jewellery cupboards at home, you would stumble across a broken gold chain, an out of date set of gold earring, or something of the like. Time to update this aging accessory? Quite possibly, but then another question strikes you: "Where on earth could I sell broken jewellery?? Excellent question, but we have just as good an answer.

Firstly, try looking in those old shoe boxes. It's genuinely amazing what can be found in there. "Hmm, there are no shoes in here... just some old gold!?
